The hood on the red one looks like Corvette also to match the rear. Check out the wheels how far the stick out. Reckin' they had a corvette chassis under it too!
I wonder if these are just drawings of what could have been or if they really did build them? If they did what happened to them and where did they end up.

I have a couple of pics of a truck that I saved from the web that had those type of louvers in the hood.
I thought that it looked pretty good.

I'm sure the truck is a '67. That the scoops are common to the '68 Camaro, is not a surprise. Chevy could have pulled a prototype off the bench and used it. Since the magazine was dated September, '67, lead times would have dictated that the copy and photos were in and ready to put to bed by May.
